BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally the field of unstructured text analysis, and more particularly to determining the relevancy of user communications about unstructured information (e.g., articles, videos, etc.).

Many web sites solicit comments (communications) from readers about published articles (information). The communications enable readers to contribute additional information, typically in the form of posted comments. The communications generally contain text providing the reader's impression, opinion, or feedback about the published information. For example, an article published about an individual suffering from a serious illness, may prompt feedback from the readership about the illness. Unfortunately, many of the hundreds of communications received may be irrelevant to the topic (e.g., off topic or contain advertisements), or contain duplicate information. Readers may continue to post communications about the published information, but will be unwilling to read through hundreds of irrelevant communications to find the relevant communications. For a small number of communications, authors may remove communications through manual subjective censorship, but this activity does not scale well and is impractical for publications with hundreds of communications.

SUMMARY

Generating one or more unstructured information annotations with a text analyzer, wherein the text analyzer is configured with at least one annotator related to the relevant knowledge domain. Generating one or more communication annotations for each of one or more communications with the configured text analyzer. Determining a relevance factor for each of the one or more communications based in part upon a comparison of the communication annotations to the information annotations. Presenting the communications with a relevance factor greater than a threshold relevance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In the following description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof, and in which is shown by way of illustration a specific embodiment in which the invention may be practiced. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and structural and functional changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.

Unstructured information and unstructured communications are generally referred to as unstructured content. Unstructured content is defined herein as content whose intended meaning is only implied by its form. One suitable example of unstructured content is a document organized merely into sentences, paragraphs and pages. Other suitable examples of unstructured content include blogs, news, advertisements, comments (communications), and electronic media such as audio or video files. Unstructured content generally contains valuable information often missed in standard text analysis. Unstructured content is often ambiguous and must be analyzed based upon context. “Structured content” is defined herein as information whose intended meaning is unambiguous and explicitly represented in a structure or format of the data. One suitable example of structured content is a database table.

Unstructured text analysis (hereinafter text analysis) is generally understood as a sub-area or component of Natural Language Processing or “NLP.” A typical text analyzer involves an “annotator,” which is understood in the relevant art as a process, comprising dictionaries and rules, for analyzing text and generating what is known in the art as “annotations.” An annotation is an object, with its own properties, used to annotate a sequence of text. There are an arbitrary number of types of annotations. For example, annotations may label sequences of text in terms of their role in the unstructured information (e.g., word, sentence, paragraph, etc.), or to describe them in terms of their grammatical role (e.g., noun, noun phrase, verb, adjective, etc.). Annotators may identify sequences of text; an annotator for identifying medical conditions may identify sequences of text for diseases, injuries, symptoms, or medical recommendations. There is essentially no limit on the number of, or application of, annotations. A text analyzer may use an Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA). UIMA is a component software architecture for analyzing unstructured information. A more detailed reference of UIMA can be obtained from the APACHE SOFTWARE FOUNDATION at http://uima.apache.org/uima-specification.html. It should be understood that any text analytic technologies utilizing NLP may be employed to accomplish the techniques described herein.

FIG. 1 illustrates a computing architecture in accordance with certain embodiments. In FIG. 1, a computing device 100 includes a relevance analysis engine 110, and is coupled to a data store 150 and an annotator database 180. FIG. 2. illustrates an example table in annotator database 180, in accordance with certain embodiments. Annotators may be classified based on applicability to a knowledge domain. Knowledge domains, hereinafter domains, is herein defined as an area of human endeavor or specialized discipline. Suitable examples of domains include (but not limited to) medical, geographic, political, and engineering. Annotators are associated with one or more knowledge domains, and in certain embodiments, each annotator has an attribute of its related knowledge domain. Example table 200 includes a domain column 202, and an annotator column 204. Entries in the domain column 202 indicate the names of domains, and the associated records in the annotator column contain an annotator for the domain. In the example illustration, rows 210, 220, and 230 contain annotators related to the medical domain. Row 210 contains the symptoms annotator, row 220 contains the hospitals annotator and row 230 contains the illness annotator. Rows 240 and 250 contain annotators for the country domain. Row 240 contains the cities annotator and row 250 contains the leaders annotator.

The relevance analysis engine 110 includes a text processor 120, a domain processor 130, a text analyzer 140, and a relevance processor 135. The text analyzer 140 includes at least one annotator 143 including dictionaries 144 and rules 145. The data store 150 includes unstructured content 160 and annotations 170. Unstructured content 160 includes unstructured information 162 (hereinafter information) and unstructured communications 165 (hereinafter communications). Annotations 170 include information annotations 172 and communication annotations 175. In certain embodiments, the annotations 170 comprise keywords and/or phrases identified using annotators 143 comprising dictionaries 144 and rules 145. In certain embodiments, the annotations 170 comprise an identifier (or link) to the annotator 143 generating the annotation 170, and further comprise an identifier to the knowledge domain associated with the annotator 143. In exemplary embodiments, the relevance analysis engine 110 generally determines the relevance of communications 165 to information 162 and presents the relevant communications.

FIG. 3. Illustrates, in a flow diagram, operations 300 for presenting relevant communications about unstructured information, in accordance with certain embodiments. At step 310, discussed in greater detail with reference to FIG. 4, one or more domains are determined to be relevant to information 162. At step 320, one or more annotator associated with relevant domains is selected. In certain embodiments, the one or more annotators are selected using the annotator database 180, which contains column 202 for domains and column 204 for annotators. At step 330, the text analyzer 140 is configured with the one or more selected annotators. In step 340, the configured text analyzer 140 analyzes the information 162 and generates information annotations 172. At step 350, each communication 165 is analyzed and communication annotations 175 are generated.

At step 360, the relevance of each communication is determined by comparing the information annotation 172 and each communication annotation 175. A relevance factor is a measure used to indicate the relevance and is a measure of the strength of relevance. In certain embodiments, the relevance factor for each communication is determined by the frequency of matches wherein the frequency of matches is determined by the number of matches divided by the number of words in the communication. In certain embodiments, relevance factor is determined by evaluating the communication annotations, without considering the information annotations; in such embodiments the existence of communication annotations indicate a relevance to one or more relevant domains; the relevance factor is determined by the number of annotations in the communication divided by the number of words in the communication. In certain embodiments, a threshold relevance must be met before considering the communication to be relevant, where the threshold relevance is a configurable setting. In certain embodiments, a threshold number of matching communication and information annotations must be met, before the communication is considered relevant (in this example the threshold relevance is the minimum number of matching communication and information annotations). In certain embodiments, a relevance factor of zero indicates irrelevant. In certain embodiments, the most relevant knowledge domain associated with the relevant communication is determined to be the knowledge domain most associated with the communication annotations.

At step 370, the relevant communications are presented and processing ends. In certain embodiments, the relevant communications are presented in order of relevance using the relevance factor to indicate those communications with higher relevance. In certain other embodiments, the presentation is organized by domain and relevance. For example, a communication with five annotations from the medical domain and one annotation from the country domain would be presented in the medical domain. In certain embodiments, the communications are presented by domain, in order of relevance. The communications of higher relevance are presented before the communications with lower relevance.

FIG. 4 is the flow chart illustrating operations 400 corresponding to step 310 for determining domains relevant to information, in accordance with certain embodiments. At step 410, the domain processor 130 is configured with candidate domains. In certain embodiments, the domain processor is configured to use a set of candidate domains based on metadata associated with information 162. In certain other embodiments, all the domains in the annotator database 180 will be used as candidate domains. In step 415, information is prepared for text analysis, if necessary. In certain embodiments, domain processor 130 determines if information 162 requires preparation by examining the metadata for information 162. For example, In certain embodiments, if the metadata for information 162 indicates the information is in video format, the text processor 120 is instructed to convert the information to text. At step 420, a loop including steps 420-460 begins for each candidate domain. At step 430, text analysis on information 162 is performed with annotators 143 associated with the candidate domain. In certain embodiments, the text analyzer 140 is configured with candidate domain annotators by the domain processor 130; the domain processor 130 queries the annotator database 180 to determine the annotators associated with the candidate domain; the annotators 143 are retrieved from the annotator database 180 and loaded into the text analyzer 140. The text analyzer 140, configured with the candidate domain annotators, analyzes the information 162 and generates the information annotations 172. In step 440, the candidate domain relevance factor is determined, at least in part, on the information annotations 172. In certain embodiments, the candidate relevance factor is equal to the summation of the information annotations 172 generated. In certain embodiments, the candidate relevance factor is determined, at least in part, on a count of words in the information 162 as compared against the number of information annotations 172 for the candidate domain. In certain other embodiments, each candidate domain has a subset of indicator words and the number of subset words identified in the annotations 172 is divided by the number of words in the information 162 to determine the candidate relevance factor. In step 450, a determination is made whether the candidate relevance factor is above a configured relevance threshold. In certain embodiments, a configured relevance threshold is a configuration value associated with the relevance analysis engine 110. If the frequency of domain indicators are above the threshold processing continues to step 455 where the candidate domain is added to a set of one or more domains, otherwise processing continues to step 460. At step 460, a determination is made as to whether more candidate domains remain, if so the method returns to step 420, otherwise the method 400 ends. In certain embodiments, once all candidate domains have been processed, the relevant domains is reduced to a single most prominent domain.

In certain embodiments, relevancy (and hence relevance factor) may also be determined by the relevance processor 135 with a process that includes temporal factors (temporal closeness). In certain embodiments, a relevance factor is generated and used to determine strength of relevance. In certain embodiments, the relevancy is determined by multiplying the relevance factor by temporal factor, such that recent communications will have increased relevance in comparison to older communications; alternatively, communications temporally closer (temporal closeness) to the date and time of the information publication may have greater relevance. In certain embodiments, the relevant communications are organized and presented according to domains associated with the domains associated with the generated annotations for the communication. For example, communications with annotations generated based on the medical domain annotators would be presented in the medical domain section. In certain other embodiments, the relevancy is augmented by factors associated with the author of the communication; for example, communications posted by the author of the information or the staff of the author is considered highly relevant.

In certain embodiments, relevance processor 135 considers communications with annotations from non-topic domains as irrelevant. For example, communications with advertisements may not be considered relevant at all, even if the advertisement contains words and phrases from the topic domain. In these certain embodiments, additional annotators may be used (e.g., advertising annotator) and any annotations identified from such domain will affect the relevance evaluation by relevance processor 135 such that communications with such annotations are considered irrelevant, notwithstanding any other annotator indicating the communication is part of a relevant domain. In certain of these embodiments, the text analyzer 140 would be configured with annotators from a negative topic domain, such as the advertising domain, and annotations associated with the negative topic domain would be determined for each communication. Those communications containing such annotations would have a lower relevance score. In certain embodiments, communications containing such annotations would be considered irrelevant.

In certain embodiments, the relevance processor 135 would compare the annotations for each communication against all other communication annotations. Communications with similar annotations will be further evaluated to determine if the communications are duplicates, and if so, the duplicate communications would be removed. Providing de-duplication in this manner enables communications that are virtually the same, but not textually the same, to be considered duplicates and eliminated.

The embodiments disclosed herein provide an automated, objective determination of the relevancy of communications to published information. Standard queries comparing keywords to determine relevance fail to consider the valuable information provided in unstructured content. NLP text analytics, are configured for the domains associated with information, provide an objective determination that considers all the relevant unstructured information. Irrelevant information such as advertisements will not likely be part of the knowledge domain and accordingly annotations from the domain annotators would not be generated, thereby Additionally, the annotations from the NLP text analysis provides information for proper categorization of communications. The embodiments disclosed herein enable the determination the relevance for any new unstructured information published, not just information in a very specific application.
